Korean Is Less Scary Than It Looks — I'll Prove It 😄 | Certified Teacher with 7 Years of Experience | B.A. in Korean Language Education | Based in Busan 🇰🇷
Hi, I'm Jun — a Korean language teacher based in Busan, South Korea. Yes, I really do think Korean is less scary than it looks, and after 7 years of teaching students from all over the world, I've seen the exact moment it starts to click for people. That moment is my favorite part of the job. 😄
I hold a Bachelor's degree in Korean Language Education, so there's a real method behind every lesson — not just fluency. I've also lived in Australia and Taiwan, which means I genuinely know what it's like to struggle with a foreign language, and I bring that patience and perspective into every class. Whether you're here because of K-dramas, a trip to Korea, or just pure curiosity, you're in the right place.
Outside of class, I'm into traveling, K-dramas, music, and staying active. The best lessons happen when we're talking about things we actually care about — so tell me what's yours. 😄
❇️ Why Choose Me?
🎓 Trained to Teach: Bachelor's degree in Korean Language Education — real methodology behind every lesson, not just fluency.
📅 7 Years, 6,000+ Lessons: Taught across multiple platforms to students from all over the world — every stage of the journey is familiar to me.
🏆 Real Results: Students have passed TOPIK, built confident everyday conversation skills, and gone from zero to holding full conversations in Korean.
🎯 Fully Personalized: No generic lesson plans. Every class is built around your goals, pace, and interests.
🛠 Custom-Built Learning Tools: I developed my own AI-powered Korean vocabulary quiz platform that I use with students — personalized quizzes, sentence writing, and speaking practice with AI pronunciation feedback, all based on exactly what we cover together.
❇️ Teaching Philosophy
My approach is rooted in communicative teaching: real-life usage over textbook drills, with a relaxed environment where mistakes aren't embarrassing — they're the whole point. Progress happens fastest when you feel comfortable enough to just try. And Korean really is more logical than it looks — once the pieces start falling into place, it gets genuinely fun.
💡 Courses
✅ General Lessons — All levels, tailored to your needs
✅ Free Talking — Casual conversation practice on any topic
✅ Travel Korean — Essential phrases and scenarios for your trip to Korea
✅ TOPIK Preparation — Focused exam prep across all sections
✅ General Lessons
[Absolute Beginner]
We start with Hangul and basic vocabulary and grammar. Lessons are primarily in English, with Korean gradually introduced as your confidence grows.
[Beginner]
Already know some Hangul? We'll expand your grammar and vocabulary, shift more of the class into Korean, and practice the everyday conversations you'll actually use.
[Intermediate]
Less grammar drilling, more real communication. Expect discussions, role-plays, debates, and media like dramas and news. We'll also work on idiomatic expressions and writing to round out your skills.
[Advanced]
Fully immersive lessons covering nuanced grammar, specialized vocabulary, and in-depth content like Korean literature, film, and current events. Challenging, but satisfying.
✅ Free Talking
Want low-pressure speaking practice? We pick a topic you're interested in and just talk. Great for building fluency and getting comfortable with natural Korean conversation.
✅ Travel Korean
Heading to Korea? We'll cover everything you need — ordering food, asking directions, shopping, navigating transport, and the cultural etiquette that guidebooks often miss. Lots of role-play so you feel ready when it counts.
✅ TOPIK Preparation
Writing: Send your draft before class — I'll review grammar, expression, and naturalness, with detailed feedback.
Reading & Listening: Learn to recognize question types, work through mock tests, and build speed and accuracy.
Vocabulary & Grammar: Focus on high-frequency TOPIK items with targeted practice.
💡 Booking Policy
No-shows: Full lesson fee applies for unnotified absences.
Late arrivals: 20-minute wait policy — lessons are considered missed after 20 minutes.
Cancellations: Less than 12 hours' notice or emergencies receive a 50% refund.

Deneme derslerim
In our first session, we'll get to know each other and I'll get a clear picture of where you are in Korean and where you want to go. We'll chat, do a quick level check, and by the end you'll have a concrete action plan for your learning. I'll also introduce you to the custom quiz tools I use between lessons to make vocabulary actually stick. No pressure — think of it as a relaxed conversation about your Korean journey. 😊
